Cuba / TT Custom Choppers
While a Cuban cigar-themed custom chopper wouldn’t be your first choice when it comes to modding, TT Custom Choppers‘ Tarhan Telli felt it perfectly alright to showcase how well bikes and cigars get along together. ‘Cuba’, as it’s called, seems to be based on a Shovelhead, accompanied by a long frame, raked-our front end, massive forks and a timeless bullet-type headlight.
The stock swingarm was ditched in favour of one with large holes cut into it, both for meaner looks and less weight. The clean styling is further complemented by mirror-finish aluminium rims and a seat cover that mimics tobacco leaves! Scroll down for the image gallery. Continue reading →

Hardcore Day in Hockenheim / 20th Anniversary
Around 20 years ago, Marcus Walz started his business customising motorcycles, beginning with the “Timeless” in 1993. Two decades on, more than 3000 friends, fans and clients celebrated the anniversary at Hockenheim, many of them bringing their own WALZ bikes to the Show.
Apart from the bikes, Mr. King Kerosin himself organized the legendary Red Carpet Lounge in the middle of the party tent, which was much bigger than last year. Some crazy on-stage party too, with Dougie and the Blind Brothers and the Hellabama Honky Tonks partying till they dropped.
